What's your OS version number? It seems a problem with permissions to execute the script. Check file permissions with: ```sh ls -l /usr/share/remarkable/scripts/set-random-screens.sh ``` Try to start the script manually and see if it works: ```sh /usr/share/remarkable/scripts/set-random-screens.sh ```

My os version of my remarkable is 2.2.0.48 The check of the file permissions : ``` /usr/lib/systemd/user$ ls -l /usr/share/remarkable/scripts/set-random-screens.sh -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 811 Apr 20 02:39 /usr/share/remarkable/scripts/set-random-screens.sh ``` When im trying to start manually i get this : ``` /usr/lib/systemd/user$ /usr/share/remarkable/scripts/set-random-screens.sh -sh: line 9: /usr/share/remarkable/scripts/set-random-screens.sh: Permission denied ``` To test I deactivated the password of my tablet and it still does not work

Good! I'll add a note in the instructions to do that.
